And for those of you that do, anyone picked up BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger? Totally amazing game, if you're into fighting games of the 2d technical variety(think Street Fighter or[especially] Guilty Gear).

If anyone here plays, let me know--I'm playing on PSN quite a bit nowadays. I'm not very good, but damned if it isn't fun anyways.

Not that it's the only good fighting game around nowadays. Street Fighter 4 and Soul Calibur 4 are both fairly recent, and both good, also. I can't believe nobody here isn't into at least one of these games. So let's start gabbing about 'em already!

Left 4 Dead is a cooperative first-person shooter video game. It was developed by Turtle Rock Studios, which was purchased by Valve Corporation during development. The game uses Valve's proprietary Source engine, and is available for Windows and the Xbox 360. Development on the game was completed on November 13, 2008 and was released on November 18, 2008 in the United States and on November 21, 2008 in Europe. Set during the aftermath of an apocalyptic pandemic, the game pits its four protagonists—dubbed "the Survivors"—against hordes of the infected. There are four game modes: a single-player mode in which allied characters are controlled by AI; a four-player, co-op campaign mode; an eight-player online versus mode; and a four-player survival mode. In all modes, an artificial intelligence (AI), dubbed the "Director", controls level pacing and item spawns, in an attempt to create a dynamic experience and increase replay value.

I played Marvel vs. Capcom 2 once at an arcade and I loved it but after that I kinda forgot about fighting games. But then I played Guilty Gear and I was reminded of the awesomeness of 2D fighters. Guilty Gear X2 was THE reason I bought a PS2. Since then I've played Street Fighter, King of Fighters, Capcom vs. SNK 2, Smash Bros., and of course the one that started it all, Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

I was all about X-Men: Children of the Atom and Marvel Super Heroes when I was in high school, but that's about it. Lots of my friends played Street Fighter though, and still do. I can't say I loved 'em though.
